Not suprised, since republicans are behind this movement.

Sounds a lot like how capitalism should be.

Selling a product to someone willing to buy it regardless of political affiliation or any shit like that.

Have a feeling most people will probably just read the title and be like OMG STALIN and put absolutely no thought into the article after that.

The article should put more of an emphasis on how Koch stole oil instead.

I get the impression that Charles and David Koch haven't resolved the cognitive dissonance resulting from their father's Communist profiteering, their own dishonest business practices and their obsession with spreading the woo of Austrian economics.

How was his act of profiteering with the USSR communistic, though?

Isn't it the EVIL capitalist who sells his good/service to anyone who's willing and has the money to buy it regardless of how that person plans to use the good/service?
